In short: truly great place, great location, all the conviniences you may need and great value. Strongly recommended! I just spent a prolonged period at this apartment and can say that it was the best overall experience I’ve had staying in an Airbnb thus far. LOCATION: 10+ if you ask me. Unless for some reason you have to stay in some other part of town, the location - both geographically and in terms of the building itself - is perfect. The apartment is in a tower that also has an uscale hotel in it (the Ascott). That has definite advantages, including at least 3 restaurants that I saw (although I never ate at any of them I could see someone not feeling like going out and ordering room service which I believe you can or going down to the restarant by the pool for a glass of wine). Speaking of the pool, really nice - it is an upscale hotel after all. One thing I liked is that there were barely ever any people there. If access to a gym is important to you then this is also the spot for you... one of the nicest and best equipped health clubs I have visited.... the one catch is that it costs 850 Baht (aboutUS$25) a day. If you are staying for more than a few days they offer a 2 week membership which was way cheaper on a per day basis. There is a convenience store kind of hidden in the parking at the back of the building... I had not realized for the feirst few days which resulted in a few unnecessary trips to the 7Eleven up the street. If you want to do more substantial shopping there is a great supermarket in the basement of the Empire Tower building which is located at the corner of the first intersection 3 minute walk away (turn right when you exit the building on Sathorn road). There are nice coffe shops, a pharmacy and various restaurants in that building as well. There are also some shops and restaurant across the street on that same corner in the office building just next to the W hotel. In that building you will find a dry cleaners if you need one. In terms of getting around, you are a 5 m walk to the Chong Nonsi BTS station (sky train). Although I am more partial to taxis which are dirt cheap and always easy to flag down, The sky train is a great way to get around (except perhaps at rush hour when it gets pretty packed with people). Besides that, the area (Sathorn and Silom roads) offers all sorts of restaurants bars and anything else you can think of, so a nice neighbourhood to walk around. THE APARTMENT Loved it, Really nicely furnished and decorated, comforable and roomy. You can tell this is someone’s home (by the looks of it someone from Europe who comes and spends prolonged periods of time in Bangkok...
